When walking the main streets where evening and nightlife is booming, I notice how much of the business-locales (in European countries atleast) have closed by 5-7PM as they consist of clothes/food/jewelery etc. shops with limited opening hours.

My suggestion to landlords and rental-companies on main-streets are to initiate a new type of leasing where two seperate companies that normally operate at different hours of the day lease the same localities.

Example: A clothes-shop opens at 9AM and closes at 5PM. All the interiors and windows-dressings are mounted on IKEA-type wheel-solutions that locks onto the floor when in use and can be pushed into a back-storage when closing.

When the store closes a washing-team uses one hour for cleaning any debris, and readies the now empty locale.

The second tenant, a nighttime-restaurant or similar then rolls out it's furniture from it's own storage-area, and opens the locked kitchen/movable kitchen for service. When the restaurant closes at 4AM, it rolls everything back and closes down it's own storage.

The washing-team cleans any remains before the first tenant opens again.

This should be a win-win situation for both tenants that each can rent central space for say 3/4 of the normal price. The landlord can then recive 1,5 times in rent of what he did before.
